英语诗歌:When I was a child

When I was a child, I spake as a child,

I understood as a child, I thought as a child:

but when I became a man, I put away

childish¹ things. For now we see through a

glass, darkly; but then face to face: now

I know in part; but then shall I know even

as also I am known.

spake: spoke (past tense of "to speak" - old-style English)
